Hello Group, I found something interesting. As some of you may be aware the pin 1 wire to ANT1 is shorter than pin 2 wire to the ANT 2. All the way through, I connect my 6m hamstick to ANT2 and 20m hamstick to ANT 1. Last evening, I did a swap with 6m hamstick on ANT 1(the one with shorter pin 1 wire). I got 92w out which is more than the usual 82w. In other words, the length of the wiring from the pin to ANT socket does matter. In my case, I got higher RF output when connecting my 6m ant to ANT 1. There is no adverse effect to 20m hamstick which is connected to ANT 2. I just share my experience with other elecrafters with low RF output in 6m.
